I've got a Flycreek UL1 and you don't need to stake out the corners to use the tent in fair weather as a bug hut.
For wet weather use with the fly you do need to stake out the tent's rear corners and the fly. But, I have not owned a tent [freestanding or not] that worked properly with out the fly staked out so the peg-less experience is only a fair-weather option when the fly isn't needed IMO for a tent and the Flycreeks are fine peg-less in dry conditions.
